At that moment, he was carefully holding a mutton fat white jade cup in his hands, rubbing it absent- mindedly.
The warm and smooth feel of the jade made him reluctant to part with it until a voice interrupted him.
Lord Gua, you have been standing in our shop for almost the entire morning.
Are you? As the shop assistant spoke, he smiled and reached for the mutton fat white jade cup in Guijia's hands.
That set of mutton fat white JT utensils was one of the most precious items in their jade shop.
A treasure of the shop, as his majesty would say, and according to the rules, it was not to be touched.
If it weren't for Guia's status, he would have already called in the two security guards stationed at the shop entrance.
Seeing the assistant's outstretched hand, Guja instinctively took a step back and then realizing the assistant's slightly stiff smile, he felt embarrassed.
A cough, cough.
After a couple of dry coughs, he reluctantly handed over the mutton fat white jade cup and under the assistant's smiling gaze, left the jade shop, glancing back multiple times.
Sigh.
So melancholic.
After exiting the jade shop, Guija couldn't te help but look up at the sky.
After spending money on two months worth of top quality tea and a delicate set of ceramic tea utensils, his wallet had thinned out significantly.
Although he was still quite wealthy, he simply couldn't afford that set of mutton fat white jade tea utensils.
After struggling with his thoughts for a while, he finally steeled himself to meet Lu Gi.
Having not seen Guya for some time, Lu Gi was quite enthusiastic upon seeing him.
What brings you to Ming Jing<unk>s city all of a sudden? How's the development in Xiuan City? Thanks to your majesty's concern, everything is fine in Shiuan City.
That's good, Lu Gi replied.
Come have some tea.
This is the top grade high mountain tea just delivered this month.
As one of the few top tea lovers in Luog civilization, Guaya visibly perked up at the mention of top grade high mountain tea and instinctively reached out to take it.
However, in the next moment, his eyes widened as he fixed his gaze on the cup Luog had handed over.
Why, your majesty, this is Oh, this.
Luog smirked slightly and casually said, I just got this mutton fat white JT set recently.
Drinking tea with this set seems to have benefits for the muscles and bones.
Benefits for the muscles and bones.
Calming the soul and nurturing the spirit, nourishing the heart and lungs.
Before Lu G could finish, Gua had already mentally completed the entire set of effects.
He was already very familiar with the benefits of the mutton fat white JT set.
However, Lu Gi continued to speak leisurely, eventually summarizing, "Currently, there are only two sets in the entire Juan GS civilization.
One with me and the other the Jade Shop.
Wait, there are only two sets.
" Guja was taken aback.
He had no idea about this before.
Seeing Guia's voice rise several decibels after mentioning this, Lu Gi couldn't help but chuckle inwardly while maintaining a casual demeanor.
Yes, just two sets.
I wonder who was lucky enough to get the other set before anyone else.
Only two sets.
That makes sense.
Such a top tier tea set.
Having two sets is already a miracle.
In other words, once it's bought by someone else.
Thinking of this, Gua immediately lifted his head and spoke in a dry and rigid tone, "Your majesty, may I ask if there is anything that needs to be instructed to me recently? Something?" Lu G tilted his head, pretending to be confused.
What kind of thing? For instance, something like attacking the barbarians.
Looking at Guia's awkward expression, Lu Gi was bursting with laughter inside, quickly covering his almost uncontrollable face with a gesture of drinking tea.
After hiding behind his sleeve and laughing for a while, Lu G finally managed to compose himself, gently placing the mutton fat white jade cup on the table and then seriously discussed the matter of attacking the barbarians.
Attacking the barbarians? We shouldn't need to do that for now.
Our WS civilization just recently annexed the great kingdom and we need to digest the population.
Attacking the barbarians at this time to increase the population is really not a good strategy.
Why, yeah, you're right.
Guia's face turned crimson and he awkwardly agreed completely not expecting that he had just made such a foolish suggestion out of selfishness.
What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Luji asked, revealing a genuinely concerned expression.
That thoughtless suggestion doesn't sound like your style.
Have you been too tired managing Xiuin City lately? Luo G's concern made Guja feel even more ashamed.
Finally, he suddenly stood up and directly knel on the ground.
Your majesty, I have sinned.
Please punish me.
This this time, Lu Gi was genuinely taken back, mainly because he never expected Gua to react so emotionally.
Without waiting for Lu Gi to respond, Gua exploded with his own little selfishness, making Lu Gi feel both amused and helpless.
Finally he said so it's about this gua if you really like that tea set so much I can help you out you can pay as much as you can and the rest can be paid in installments or really your majesty's face was filled with gratitude just a small matter waved his hand thank you your majesty decisively bowed deeply to Lu Gi and as he lowered his head a faint smile appeared on his lips he had finally succeeded in getting his majesty to allow him to pay in installments.
Sigh.
Self-exlosion is exhausting.
By the way, my expression just now should have been spot on, right? Haha.
As Luog helped Goa from the ground, he also wore a slight smile.
After all, that set of mutton fat white JT utensils was originally intended to be sold to him.
The newly opened jade shop also needed someone to take the lead.
And at that price, paying in installments would be enough to keep him financially strained for a whole year.
For the next year, there would be no need to worry about what to reward him with.
Haha.
Chapter 311.
An unknown test looking at the scene of mutual smiles and harmony between the ruler and his minister.
For some reason, the two guards standing nearby felt a sudden chill.
Regardless, holding on a logic's hand order, Guja ultimately got his wish and took away the set of mutton fat white jade tea sets from the jade store and unknowingly had his wallet emptied for an entire year by Logic.
As one of the important figures in the 10,000 realm civilization, Guajia's purchase of Jade was naturally not spared from being heavily publicized by Logic, this unscrupulous boss, who then unsurprisingly pushed the popularity of Jade to a new peak.
There is no doubt that logic was intentionally promoting jade.
Of course, the same jade can vary greatly in price depending on the quality and type of jade combined with the craftsmanship of the jade artisans.
Logic's goal was to first establish the concept of jade as a luxury item using this batch of top quality jade and high prices and then gradually introduce relatively cheaper jade to open up the market for ordinary people promoting jade throughout his civilization in one go.
The internal development of the civilization was proceeding in an orderly manner.
At the same time, time quietly passed.
Leaning back in his office chair, logic played with the black jade carb in his hand, quietly waiting for the last minute of the peace car to pass.
System prompt, player merchant army is invading your civilization.
Merchant army? Logic frowns slightly.
Another unfamiliar name.
The last one was called Jeang Egen, who was most likely a member of the Zong Hong Tin Alliance.
So, is this merchant army also one of them? Sigh.
Thinking of this, Logic couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.
This is the advantage of having many people.
Never mind.
Let the soldiers come and we will block them.
Let the water come and we will cover it with soil.
Anyway, this time he was determined to farm well.
In less than half a day, the news from the messenger quickly reached his hands.
Without a doubt, the area invaded by the enemy was the western border of the 10,000 realm civilization, specifically Shiuan City.
Since the last incident, the responsibility of guarding Shiuan city had fallen to the two brothers, Guia and Gujan, one civil and one military.
Logically speaking, with the two of them stationed there, the western defense line of Logic's 10,000 realm civilization should be very stable.
However, looking at the strength of the city guards, it was undoubtedly still more stable over at Iron Wall City.
After all, Iron Wall City had the General Xiao Pan personally stationed there with his innate defensive battle power buff, plus the effect of specializing in golden level stone throwers.
Under the dual buffs, Xiaoan's command of the stone throwers in the city defense battle was almost at a level of cheating.
In contrast, over at Xiuan City, although the stonethrowers as city defense troops still performed well, the gap became obvious when compared to Xiaoan's side.
